A well-known overseas sports betting platform, 5Dimes, is ceasing its business activities within the United States. The organization intends to reintroduce itself in the U.S. through legal means once it successfully obtains permits in specific states.
Meanwhile, 5Dimes will discontinue accepting wagers from U.S. patrons beginning on September 21st. Clients have until September 25th to retrieve their funds. Subsequently, any outstanding balances will be transferred to an independent entity that will endeavor to return the money to its legitimate proprietors.
The precise method by which 5Dimes intends to transform from an offshore bookmaker into a lawful entity within the U.S. remains uncertain. They will need to identify collaborators and fulfill stringent licensing prerequisites in each state where they aspire to conduct operations. This situation is evolving, and specialists in the field will be closely monitoring its developments to observe the outcome.
Previously, certain regulatory bodies may recall those who conducted business illicitly on the internet or within the realm of fantasy sports. Obtaining licensure could potentially be a lengthy process for these individuals.”
Founded in 1996 in San José, 5Dimes provided a worldwide hub for internet-based sports wagering, casino gaming, bingo, poker, and additional offerings.
